Future Training Courses

We are currently developing a training programme for the coming year, see

Courses March - July 2008 for the current list, which we will be updating soon with the 2008 -2009 programme.

Launch of the Freshwater Recorders and Schemes Funding Programme

The purpose of the programme is to provide some financial support for freshwater recorders towards costs such as travel expenses, the purchase of sampling equipment, and the production of promotional materials such as newsletters. If you would like to find out more about the programme go to Funding Programme

The Recorders and Scheme Project aims to provide training and workshops for recorders or anyone interested in freshwaters, natural history and the environment. We aim to help with key skills in sampling and identification of freshwater plants and animals, promotion and fundraising, publicity and recruitment and data management.

We are currently developing a training programme for the coming year, see Courses January - July 2008 for the current list, which we will update soon with the 2008 - 2009 programme. If you feel you would benefit from any other training or advice in the areas mentioned, or have any suggestions, please do not hesitate to contact us.
